Send a Super Love video greeting and vote for St. Jude Children Hospital to receive donation from Target Stores
Target Stores are donating $1 million dollars to five charities based on votes of those sending a Super Love Video
greeting as a part of Target’s on line promotion. While all the charities are worthwhile, the need for funding for childhood
cancer makes the donation to St. Jude most important. To send a card and cast your vote for St Jude visit the following link:

Face of Courage; Kids Living With Cancer to air on Nickelodeon Sunday January 24-
Cancer. When children hear the word, what do they think? It may be scary, but today, a diagnosis of cancer is not
necessarily a death sentence. Nick News with Linda Ellerbee explores the world of kids who are living with cancer on The Face
of Courage: Kids Living with Cancer, premiering Sunday, Jan. 24, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT) on Nickelodeon. The road these kids travel
is not easy; it is pitted with fear, pain and loss. But also it is a road paved with hope, strength, courage and even humor.
They have been where no kid should have to go, and they have survived to share their stories – and their courage –
with the rest of us.
“All of these kids live as if the cancer were never coming back,” says Ellerbee,
an 18-year cancer survivor. “Cancer is a part of my past. That’s a fact. It’s a part of my present because
I choose to speak about it, and for the same reason, it will be a part of my future. But it is not who I am. It is not who
any of us is.”
Or use the form below and we will get back to you as soon as we can. We look forward to hearing from you.
Please
remember that the book "I love you, my Goose" will be available for purchase by early 2010. Please revisit this
page for further information or ask you local bookseller.
